Thank you, Mr. Chair.
First of all, I'd also like to extend my condolences to Grand Chief Kennedy and to all the members of Manitoba's first nations.
Grand Chief Woodhouse, we've heard calls from a number of indigenous organizations for changes to strengthen the bill and ensure that their treaty rights, such as the rights to their lands, are not suspended or eroded by the new legislation. A number of arguments were heard at the Assembly of First Nations general assembly in Montreal last July, which I attended. A number of arguments have also been presented to this committee. However, we haven't yet received the brief from the Assembly of First Nations. Can you give us a concrete description of the amendments you are recommending? You've mentioned them, but I'd like us to be able to write them down more accurately.
